Never make assumptions. Reference, update and maintain network configuration documentation.
I usually start servers at .200 in a Class C network, that way there is ample room for DHCP.

WINS ?
mwclarke1@... 24th Jun 2010
No one should be running WINS/Netbios unless still have w98 or older OS.
Should force all machines to use DNS exclusively.
Better performance mapping network drives, etc.

WIN is for apps
y0shi 24th Jun 2010
WINS isn't just for older Windows OS's, it?s still around today for older programs/applications that use NetBIOS and SMB. Yes, you can force Windows to use NetBIOS over TCP/IP, but some applications still need WINS.
